Line 3-2

Include all SNAP direct certifications in this count. If a student is SNAP directly certified along with another program (i.e. SNAP/TANF), classify it as a SNAP direct

  • certification. Include it in the count on this line, not on

another line—SNAP takes precedence.

24

Line 3-2 is very important for SNAP direct certification performance rate calculations:

Line 3-2

If the student shows up on the SNAP direct certification list by the last operating day in October (even if initially certified in another way), classify them as a SNAP direct certification and include them in this count. These are classified as converted. . Otherwise . . .

  • Do NOT include SNAP “letter method” counts here.
  • Do NOT include SNAP students certified using case numbers

written on an application.
